A Cozy Central Park Engagement in NYC


When Kristen and Adam reached out about their engagement session, they knew exactly where they wanted to shoot: Central Park in the fall. It's hard to beat the mix of warm autumn colors and iconic city backdrops, especially for a couple who has such an easygoing, fun energy together.


We met up on a perfect fall afternoon, with just the right amount of crisp air and golden light. As we wandered through the park, Kristen and Adam were so stinkin' sweet together—laughing, holding hands, and genuinely enjoying the moment. We made stops at some of Central Park’s most beautiful spots: Bethesda Terrace, Bow Bridge, The Mall, and just outside of the park on Central Park West.


The park’s fall colors really brought everything to life. The leaves were a mix of gold, orange, and deep red, creating a warm, cozy feel that was perfect for the two of them. It’s always great when a couple feels at home in a place, and Kristen and Adam definitely did.


I can't wait to photograph their wedding next summer!
